i was getting a little pooch and started trying to work out and stuff then i had a dream that i took a pregnancy test and it was positive so the next day i went and took one and it was positive lol. now i'm at 11 weeks and i have a bigger pooch and i'm at the stage where i just look fat lol. i'm ready to have the pregnant belly instead of this awkward stage.

i started showing instantly, depends on how far apart ur pregnancies are and how well u get back in shape i guess thats what others told me. I lost all my baby weight with my 1st child, but i got pregnant a year later so thats why they said i started showing so early

Your not alone. It is normal with pregnancies after the first one for you to start showing earlier. With my first pregnancy I was able to wear all my normal clothes all the way up to delivery and barely had a stomach the whole time. With this one I sadly had to buy maternity clothes at 6 weeks because all my normal clothes felt too tight even if they were a little loose. I have gotten so huge with this pregnancy. I swear at 29 weeks I look as pregnant as a woman that is overdue. I never thought I would get this big. I'm already horribly off balance and its a struggle to sit on the couch and lean down to put my own shoes on already. I'm dreading getting any bigger although I seem to every day. Good luck with your pregnancy!! And with you showing earlier don't be surprised if you start feeling kicks earlier too...

I'm pregnant with baby #2 as well and I started showing MUCH earlier with this one than I did with my son. I've read a lot that it's very normal. The first pregnancy tends to have that lovely habit of stretching out your stomach.. Your muscles are more loose so, you "pop" sooner with each pregnancy. :)
